Leaning against the Bastione delle Isole, as the few remains that survivor from collapses and carelessness miraculously testify the existence of this important architectural work. The Annunziata church with a late medieval origin, risks of leaving behind only the memory of its name. The fragmentary nature of the remaining decorations does not allow us to make any reasonable assumptions about the layout of the religious building and, nether less, on the large appurtenances aggregated to it.
